Slightly confused. I thought Monica has a separate vote on the board. Did her boss strong-arm her into being the 3rd and majority vote for her company? I thought she could at least say, "fuck you guys, I'm with Richard on this one". She still owns a personal percentage of the company...which should make a fuck-ton of money so she should be able to quit her job.

Am I missing something or am I just saying the common sense stuff that doesn't happen in every TV show?

It's not like its a hidden, complicated message. She either votes with her company or votes with Richard. But her vote isn't automatically the company's...so I just hope they don't make it that way and make it more of a "she's towing the company line." Like ^he said.

I think I may have to cut this show from my viewing lineup - the ongoing roadblocks to their success combined with too few laughs in last night's episode may have finally done it. But then I think about the jerk off whiteboard scene and the Blaine SWOT'ing scene and the porn company nameplates and think maybe I should stick it out a few more episodes.

and i was almost going to have the same complaints about too many dumb roadblocks, but last nights was almost a bottle episode, from roadblock plots anyway. The two major fuckups both were resolved w/in the episode.

i suppose that interview could come back to bite them still but it was a relative happy ending.

I still enjoy it, but it seems to be stagnating a bit. It just doesn't feel like the main storyline is progressing much. Still love the characters, their interaction, etc. but this season has been a bit meh outside of a few really good moments (sales people, Dinesh chain, server farm scene).

yep still a great show. last week, when TJ Miller was coughing after the bong hits and trying to explain why it was good that Hooli had done what they did...man i was dying laughing at that entire scene.

^^ Be careful about expressing such an obvious opinion about the season thus far lest some of the others become upset. But I'm not sure how anyone defends this week's episode unless you're just really into coding humor.

it wasn't a great episode, and you're right it was just kinda filler episode. but in a way it was nice for an episode not to be as dramatic as all the others. seems like every episode Pied Piper is inches from falling apart before being saved at the last minute, or some variation of them just continually saving the company. to me that gets a bit tired...so in a way it was nice to have a differently paced episode if nothing else.
